After the prince enters the play

Chapter 139 139: Isn't this slapping yourself in the face?
Su Xinyi had a good idea, but it was difficult to implement it in practice.

First of all they have no one.

Again they have to get the customs clearance certificate.

Finally, it is necessary to ensure that you will not lose your way on the grassland, and you must have a specific map.

King Rong looked at Su Xinyi, and after he calmed down, he said quietly: "You seem to have forgotten one thing. The Tartars came to snatch us because they had no food. You must have traveled so hard to such a poor place. Can you get it back?"

Su Xinyi was bullied by King Rong for a while, and he thought about it seriously and said: "You are right, if there is nothing to grab, it is indeed a waste of time."

It was rare for King Rong to gain the upper hand, so he showed a bit of complacency on his face, and said, "This year the tartars went south to hunt the grass valley so much earlier, it is because of the severe drought that dried up the grass, the cattle and sheep starved to death, and the herdsmen couldn't feed themselves."

Su Xinyi nodded, "What the prince said is true, but in previous years, when their granaries were full, didn't they go south?"

Rong Wang is obsessed, of course there is!
The two stabbed each other, and the outcome was evenly divided, a tie.

Hey!
Ugh!
The two squatted under the eaves and sighed in unison, it was too difficult, too difficult!
What Su Xinyi is worried about is that he has no one in his hands, even if you have great ambitions, no one can use it, what's the use of a bare rod.

King Rong's headache was the lack of food, even if he went to rob it once as a robber, and found that the enemy was poorer than himself, and his ambitions were not fulfilled, it was too uncomfortable.

Su Xinyi thought about it for a long time, and felt that he still had to start from the ground up, first set up a caravan, and see if he could let Mu Xing take people to the south.

Su Xinyi looked at King Rong again, pondered for a while, and immediately said with a smile on his face, "My lord, I have a deal to discuss with you, see if you are interested."

Rong Wang was not very interested, he still thought that if he could make a contribution, he would also show his father and his elder brother, he is not a waste.

But why is it so difficult.

"What kind of business? If you want to do it, you can do it, but I won't." King Rong is not interested in doing business, and merchants are low-level businesses. He is a dignified prince who does this so that people will die of laughter.

Su Xinyi knew that he would say this, and said simply: "Okay, then I will do it myself, I want to form a caravan, and bring silk, tea and other things that the nobles in the grassland like to trade with them. The life of the herdsmen on the prairie is hard, but no matter how hard it is, how can it be hard for the descendants and nobles of the kings of all ethnic groups? If the caravan can open up this trade route, they can slowly draw a map, find out the enemy's reality, and do a good job for the army. A vanguard officer scouts the way. Moreover, it can also earn money from the enemy. I think this is feasible. Since the prince is not interested, I will do it myself."

"Wait a minute!" Rong Wang looked at Su Xinyi, his eyes rolled. If this is the case, it seems that it is not impossible. If you can earn money from the enemy and find out the reality of the enemy, if you can really draw a map of the various ethnic groups, it will be great. It's a great achievement. "You're serious, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

"What's so easy to deceive about this kind of thing? Now the exchange market between Nanqi and Tatar has been closed for many years, but there are still merchants secretly doing business with Tatar and other ministries. We are just keeping this behavior from the dark. Put it on the surface and get permission from the court." Su Xinyi said solemnly.

"The exchange market has been closed. This is a government order. It is impossible to change the order overnight. How could you agree to do such a thing." Rong Wang said with a frown.

"Of course I can't. Isn't there a prince here?"

King Rong knew that nothing good would happen if Su Xinyi smiled, so he looked at her and asked, "You said you grew up in the countryside, how do you even know such things?"

"There are thousands of grains in the book, there are golden houses in the book, and there are many horses and chariots in the book. If a man fulfills his life ambition, he will read the Six Classics diligently at the window."

King Rong: ...

Isn't this just scolding him that books are a good thing, but it's a pity that you have no brains!
He is not convinced!

He also studied hard in the cold window of ten years, and if he dared to be lazy and was sued by his husband to his father, he would inevitably be punished. He has a very deep memory of this.So, he is really serious about reading, why can't he read such things like Su Xinyi?

It must not be that he has read too little, it must be that Su Xinyi has read too much.

But this is not possible, Su Xinyi wants to practice martial arts, study and make a living, so he has three heads and six arms?
He was not convinced by Su Xinyi, but he remembered that Su Chun was also a genius in the past. He could memorize the book after reading it ten times. Others were not strong enough to draw the bow. He tied stones to his wrists every day to practice his arm strength. Draw the strong bow.

Although King Rong had never seen it with his own eyes, his father would not lie.

Could it be that Su Xinyi is really a genius like her father?

This is distressing!
"How many times can you recite a book?"

When Su Xinyi heard King Rong's words, he looked sideways at him. As soon as he rolled his eyes, he knew that he must be suspicious, so he told him the truth calmly, "At least one or two times, at most three or five times."

King Rong covered his heart, he might as well not ask!
It takes at least ten days and a half months for others to memorize a book, and it takes as long as one or two months. It takes several months for a heavy classic. People like Su Xinyi who save time read a lot more than him Isn't this what it should be?
"What books do you like to read?" Rong Wang wanted to know her book list, after all, she knew that things are very complicated and messy.

"Read what you have. After all, it is not easy for us to buy books in the countryside. We can read what we can buy."

Rong Wang wiped his face, he was incomparable, the list of books that entered his study had been checked, and he could not read any book.

Both fell silent for a moment.

Su Xinyi remembered that she didn't read many books when she was in the country in her previous life, because she spent a lot of time practicing martial arts and went hunting in the mountains to make a living. It is also true that the number of books in the countryside is really limited. It is not easy to buy one, and you have to walk a long way. There are everything sold in the market, but there are very few books.

She later read a lot of books, because after entering the Prince's Mansion of Pingjing County, she had nothing to do and always wanted to have some entertainment.And at that time, she wanted to be a lady of every family, so she didn't want to lose face to her father, so she went to study desperately. Indeed, she read a lot of books in those years.It seems that if you memorize the words of Wentao Wulue Poetry and eat them into your stomach, you will become a talented woman.

King Rong looked at Su Xinyi with a sullen face and didn't speak. He didn't know what he was thinking, and there was a trace of emotion in his eyes that he couldn't understand.

He immediately stood up, "The business of the caravan is not a trivial matter. I'll go and find out if it can be done. You wait for my news."

King Rong left in a hurry, Su Xinyi looked up at his back, and smiled softly, he was more pleasing than King Rong in this life in the previous life.

So I have to find something for him to do, so as not to keep staring at His Highness's position as the crown prince.

King Rong was only worried when he was out of the house. His father was far away in the capital, and the commander of Yulin Guard must not dare to call the shots. If it would take time to send letters to the capital to ask for instructions, he found that the one who might call the shots now is actually the prince!

King Rong hesitated, if he went to find the prince, wouldn't it mean that he was not as good as his elder brother?

This slap was still slapped on his own face!
King Rong hesitated, should he go or not?
Su Xinyi didn't know what King Rong was struggling with. She was waiting for Mu Xing to come back. The eldest brother said that Mu Xing was a step late, and it should be almost the same now.

During the waiting time, she was not idle, and went to the house of sister-in-law Ying with the small pickled fish she made.

This small fish was caught from the water when watering the ground, not many, only a dozen or so as big as a palm, she didn't want to eat it, so she pickled it with salt and prepared it as a favor.

After wrapping it in sackcloth, no one else could see what it was, so she knocked on Mrs. Ying's door.

Sister-in-law Ying happened to be at home, and their home was located in a relatively good location, so there was no disaster, so there was no need to go out to replant.

Seeing Su Xinyi, sister-in-law Ying welcomed him in with great enthusiasm, and said with a smile: "Why is Miss Xinyi here? Are you all busy in the fields?"

"I'm done. This is a small fish I caught when I was watering the ground. I made a few salted fish and sent two to my sister-in-law to taste." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

Ying's sister-in-law hastily declined, it's not easy to eat some meat these days, how can she accept other people's things, "You see you are skinny, hurry up and take it back and mend it yourself."

Su Xinyi put the fish on the table, smiled and said: "I still have some, it's a dish for the children, sister-in-law, don't be humble, or I won't dare to come to your door in the future."

Sister-in-law Ying was angry and laughed, brought out a cup of hot water, sprinkled some sugar in it, put it in front of Su Xinyi and said, "Drink some water, then I won't be polite to you. This year's weather is not counted." Well, there are fewer and fewer caravans going to Yulinwei, and it is getting harder and harder to buy things, so everyone is having a hard time."

Su Xinyi nodded, looked at Mrs. Ying and asked, "Sister-in-law, are there any restrictions on the caravan going to Yulinwei?"

"No." Sister-in-law Ying waved her hand, "No one wants to come if there is no control, and if there are additional terms and conditions for others, no one will come. Our place is too far away, the people in the caravan said , this time-consuming back and forth is too time-consuming to make much money, hard work and no money, who wants to run away."

Hearing Sister-in-law Ying's sigh, Su Xinyi knew that this was the truth. Businessmen were after profits, and no one would take the risk of losing money to do business without profits.

She took a sip of water, tasted the sweet taste, looked up at Mrs. Ying, and chuckled lightly, she was coaxing her like a child.

Su Xinyi put down the bowl, thought for a while and asked again: "Yulin Wei didn't think of any other way?"

"Think, why don't you want to, but the effect is not great, mainly because we don't have any good things here to replace with others. Others come with a full load of things, and they have to go back with an empty car. The caravans that have been here are not willing to come again .”

Su Xinyi was thoughtful. It seemed that Yulinwei did not have enough interests to attract the caravan.

The northern land is desolate, and there are constant wars with the Tartars, so there are indeed not enough business opportunities.She used to go to the market in the countryside to buy things, and she had to carry prey to exchange for some copper coins for household use. Whoever goes to the market is not exchanging things, exchanging out the unused and returning the useful ones.

Back and forth...

Something flashed through Su Xinyi's mind, but she missed it too quickly, there should be a way.

　The second update is here, the update is complete today, so cute, thank you for waiting.There may not be an update in the early morning. I have to go to the dentist today, and everyone will come to see it tomorrow morning. Hugs.
